Labour Market Integration of Refugee Health
Professionals in Germany: Challenges and
Strategies
Sidra Khan-G€okkaya* and Mike M€osko*
ABSTRACT
Refugee health professionals are a vulnerable group in a host country’s labour market as they
experience several barriers on their path to labour market integration. This study aims to iden-
tify challenges refugee health professionals and their supervisors experience at their work-
places and strategies they have developed to overcome these barriers. Semi-structured
interviews were conducted with refugee health professionals who have been living in Germany
for an average of four years and their supervisors (n = 24). The interviews were analysed
using qualitative content analysis. Nine themes were identified: (1) recognition of qualifica-
tions, (2) language competencies, (3) differing healthcare systems, (4) working culture, (5)
challenges with patients, (6) challenges with team members, (7) emotional challenges, (8) dis-
crimination and (9) exploitation. Results indicate the need to implement structural changes in
order to improve the labour market experiences of refugee health professionals.
BACKGROUND
The global healthcare workforce is facing skilled labour shortage. The World Health Organization
(WHO) estimates a global shortage of 14.5 million health professionals by 2030 (World Health Orga-
nization, 2006). The European Commission estimates a shortfall of 1 million health workers in Europe
by 2020 (European Commission, 2012), and employment agencies in Germany predict a nationwide
lack of health professionals (Bundesagentur f€ur Arbeit, 2018). In order to address this shortage, nearly
all European countries depend on the recruitment of foreign-trained health professionals (Organisation
for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), 2017). Another strategy that has been imple-
mented by the German government to address this shortage is the so-called “activation of domestic
potential” (Bundesregierung, 2018). With that, the German government aims to address those groups
that have difficult access to the labour market, such as refugees in order to improve their employability
and use them to fill shortages (Bundesregierung, 2018). As the number of refugees in Germany has
increased since 2015, the German government has recognized the need to address their labour market
integration (Bundesregierung, 2016). However, refugees belong to a particularly vulnerable group in
the labour market facing unemployment or underemployment (Tanay et al., 2016).

Learning Objectives
After completing this chapter, the reader should be able to
• understand how proactive use of diversity principles can transform the
organization’s culture;
• understand the business case for diversity and inclusion in healthcare
organizations;
• work toward creating an inclusive organizational culture;
• define the roles that healthcare providers, management, and governance
play in building a business imperative for diversity within the
organization; and
• discuss how healthcare leaders can develop a diversity program in their
organizations.
Introduction
When you hear the term “diversity,” what comes to mind? To some, the word
means the differences between human beings related to race or ethnicity. To
others, it means the uniqueness of each individual. A few people still may jump
up to argue that diversity is just a code word for affirmative action.
Healthcare organizations across the United States are beginning to
move toward embracing and fostering workforce diversity. This cultural
change means adopting new values that are inclusive and appropriately man-
aging a diverse workforce. In the future, diversity will drive the business prac-
tices of hospitals and other healthcare organizations, and this dynamic will re-
quire strong leadership. This change will take time, but in the words of
Reverend Jesse Jackson, “Time is neutral and does not change things. With
courage and initiative, leaders change things.”
In this chapter, we provide a definition of diversity and a framework for
understanding the different ways people view the term. In addition, we high-
light several studies and legal issues pertaining to this topic and enumerate
methods for building a case for and establishing a diversity program.

A Definition of Diversity
People define diversity in many ways, depending on the way they live in and
view society. In his book, The 10 Lenses: Your Guide to Living and Working in
a Multicultural World, author Mark Williams (2001) discusses the framework
that explains the way people see the world:
1. The assimilationist wants to conform and fit in with the group to
which he or she belongs.
2. The colorblind ignores race, color, ethnicity,

Learning Objectives
After completing this chapter, the reader should be able to
• understand the role of healthcare professionals in the human resources
management function of healthcare organizations;
• define the elements of a profession, with an understanding of the
theoretical underpinnings of the healthcare professions in particular;
• describe the healthcare professions, which include the majority of
healthcare workers, and the required educational levels, scopes of
practice, and licensure issues for each;
• relate knowledge of the healthcare professions to selected human
resources management issues and systems development; and
• comprehend the changing nature of the existing and emerging
healthcare professions in the healthcare workforce, particularly the
impact of managed care.
Introduction
Healthcare professionals are central to the delivery of high-quality healthcare
services. Extensive training, education, and skills are essential in meeting the
needs and demands of the population for safe, competent healthcare. These
specialized techniques and skills that healthcare professionals acquired through
systematic programs of intellectual study are the basis for socialization into
their profession. Additionally, the healthcare industry is labor intensive and is
distinguished from other service industries by the number of licensed and reg-
istered personnel that it employs and the variety of healthcare fields that it pro-
duces. These healthcare fields have emerged as a result of the specialization of
medicine, development of public health, increased emphasis on health promo-
tion and prevention, and technological advances and growth.

Because of this division of labor within medical and health services de-
livery, many tasks that were once the responsibility of medical providers have
been delegated to other healthcare personnel. Such delegation of duties raises
important questions for the industry: Should healthcare providers other than
those specifically trained to practice medicine be considered professionals in
their own right? To what extent should their scope of practice be extended?
